Alert Version: 2Wednesday, November 4th, 2009 at 06:21:46 UTCLocation: 7.1° N, 126.6° EDepth: 110kmEvent Id: US2009NPAMCreated: 10 hours, 10 minutes after earthquake.

Overall, the population in this region resides in structures that are a mix of vulnerable and earthquake resistant construction. A magnitude 5.7 earthquake 160 km Northwest of this one struck the Philippines on May 23, 1987 (UTC), with estimated population exposures of 75,000 at intensity VII and 475,000 at intensity VI, resulting in an estimated 1 fatality. On August 16, 1976 (UTC), a magnitude 8.0 earthquake 292 km West of this one struck Moro Gulf, Philippines, with estimated population exposures of 1,484,000 at intensity VII and 2,888,000 at intensity VI, resulting in an estimated 7,079 fatalities. Recent earthquakes in this area have caused landslides that may have contributed to losses.

PAGER results are generally available on the Internet within 30 minutes of the earthquake’s occurrence. However, information on the extent of shaking will be uncertain in the minutes and hours following and earthquake and typically improves as additional sensor data and reported intensities are acquired and incorporated into models of the earthquake's source. Users of PAGER estimates should account for uncertainty and always seek the most current PAGER release for any earthquake.
